​History of The Duke Classic
 
Foundation


​On September 29, 2012, we lost a great man, husband, father, family man and friend. Duke will always be deeply missed by the many people whose lives he touched. Mike was very passionate about helping others who were less fortunate. The Greater Chicago Food Depository's "Food Drive", was a yearly project that Mike was deeply involved with and looked forward to. He and his ABC colleagues made it their mission to give 100% to support this very worthy cause. The food drive helps to provide more than 960,000 nutritous meals to those who are most in need in Cook County.


Spending many hours in the community for more than 35 years, Duke had tremendous empathy and told incredibly emotional stories about going to cover local news stories about families whose loved ones had been lost or severely disabled while defending our country. The Folds of Honor Foundation provides scholarship funding for the children and spouses of the those who were either lost or disabled while defending the country. These are the reasons we have supported our charity partners over the past 3 years. Who knows what the future holds for all of us but we are all very appreciative of all of your love and support.
